A/N: Well, what can I say? No reviews… Anyways, I may have to jump around in time for a bit because well. I have ideas in my head that my creativity expects my brain to piece together and add what's missing. Yeah right. But I will have to ask you readers something: Alex Likes Sora, as you know. So, Do you think Sora and Alex should be a couple? Or Kairi and Sora? Or maybe I should throw in some shounen-ai and make it Riku and Sora? Well tell me your thoughts. Read and review! Thanks! ^_^

Chapter 4: Reunited at Last
One last place to look, Hallow Bastion. Riku thought as he looked up at the Rising falls. The persocom seemed uncomfortable here. The silver-haired boy sighed and began jumping up onto the rocks, heading towards the castle. Alex followed, trying to hide the unprogramed fear that she felt. He glanced back at the humanoid, what was she feeling right now? Felling… Hah, that was funny. A machine feeling anything true, impossible. He quickly discarded the thought and continued forth. She caught up with him easily and they both got on the platform, both silent.
Once arriving they were greeted by heartless whom they fended off easily. "Sora? Kairi?" Riku called out once they entered, hoping for a response. There was silence for a moment then Riku sighed heavily. "Riku? Is that you?" A female voice said as an older girl resembling Kairi in some ways appeared in one doorway. He turned to face her and smiled, "Hey Kairi… Where's Sora?" Kairi shifted a bit uneasily but returned the older boy's smile, "He's exploring this place for the millionth time… Thing haven't been the same since you left…" She glanced to the persocom and rose an eyebrow, "Is that… Alex?" "Hai…" Alex replied and smiled to the other girl. Kairi blinked, confused, "She looks… different…" "That's because it is her but it isn't… I'll explain everything when everyone's here… " Riku interrupted then began to head to the lift shop, "Both of you stay here… I'll go get Sora…" Both girls nodded and he walked off.
An hour later all four of them were in the entrance hall, Kairi and Sora listening intently as Riku explained everything that had happened as Alex leaned against a wall, silent, with her arms crossed and eyes closed. "So… Alex is dead?" Sora inquired once Riku had finished. The elder hesitated then nodded. "How?" Kairi questioned thought she didn't really feel much concern for the deceased girl, she still acted as if she did since her two friends had at least cared about Alex. "I'm not sure… " He responded slowly then took a small booklet out of his pocket and opened it to the last page which was covered in dry blood spots, the last sentence seemed incomplete, "This is the last thing she entered into her studies... and who else's blood would it be?"
I'm not gone just yet… you just wait and see. We'll meet on the battlefield once again, but as enemies…
